Spinning Circles

 

Little Red Mitten is now hosting spinning circles on the second Tuesday of the month from 6:00 to 8:30 pm, and on the fourth Saturday of the month from 2:00 to 4:30 pm.  Bring your wheel or spindle, while away the time and bring some calmness to your life.

 

As Gandhi put it, “Take to spinning to find peace of mind.  The music of the wheel will be as balm to your soul.  I believe that the yarn we spin is capable of mending the broken warp and woof of our life.”

 

Sit and Knit Groups

Everyone is welcome at our regular knitting groups.  Drop in anytime Wednesday afternoons and/ or Friday evenings for conversation, camaraderie ...and of course, some inspirational knitting time.  Come on out - we’d love to see you!

Whether it’s wool, alpaca, cashmere, cotton, bamboo or any other fibre, look for it at LITTLE RED MITTEN.  You’ll find plenty of patterns, books and magazines, and a rainbow of colours and fibres to inspire your next project …and the best choice of knitting and spinning tools around!

If you’ve always wanted to “spin a fine yarn”, you’ll love our Majacraft Spinning Wheels, and our selection of gorgeous hand spinning fibres and wooden hand spindles. Ashford Table Looms and Knitters Looms are the latest additions to our fibre equipment.

Come for the great classes or bring your friends to visit and knit in our community room … or cozy up in our parlour and check out the knitting books and patterns … or weather permitting, sit and knit on our wrap-around porch (original to 1842!).  We’re always happy to welcome you at LITTLE RED MITTEN.

For those who love to knit for charity, we offer a collection point for finished items and a box of ‘oddballs’ of yarn to donate – recycling at its best!  Please let us know what you would like to do and we’ll find a way to get it done.
